The more I learn about this world—its history, its great thinkers, the biology of life, the workings of the mind, and the vastness of the universe—the more I realize how little I know.

Or perhaps, more accurately, I become aware of how much there is to know.

It is a curious paradox.

The more I understand, the wider the mystery becomes.

Yet I have no desire to stop asking questions.

I may never solve the mystery, but that is no longer the point.

The joy lies in trying to understand.

So I continue, walking the path with equal measures of humility and curiosity.
